This was my criticism for Mass Effect Andromeda as well. You literally go to another galaxy and the best ideas they could come up with for planets were 2 deserts, snow, some mountains, a jungle and an asteroid. What a waste of potential. The very first planet you visit in that game is by far the most interesting and you never see anything like it for the rest of it.

This is the first creative exercise Todd and his people have done. Fallout was created by a different studio and Bethesda just bought the IP. Elder Scrolls had its roots in DnD fantasy and brought actual writers on board to create the world and lore. So, with their first original IP since the 90s, they had a free opportunity to really flex their creative muscles and show us their boundless imaginations. And they made NASA with guns.

Plus, I'd rather take the simple story of Starbound over the thousands of hours of boring and uncanny dialogue in Starfield. Lmfao.

Not anymore. Modders are pretty much staying away from Starfield because there's no point in modding it, really. There's no content to enjoy on all of the empty planets that have nothing of interest on them. The combat is cookie cutter every time and it's boring as hell. The game is awful and modders don't enjoy it either, which means the modding community for Starfield is going to be very, very small to non-existent. At this point, most people are just pissed Bethesda spent 10 years developing this garbage and putting off TES VI. So much so that we're still going to be waiting another 5 or so years until we maybe even see a reveal trailer for TES VI. Bethesda has waited far too long for TES VI. It's been 12 years since Skyrim was released. In that time I graduated high school, got married, moved 4 times, had kids and have pretty much gotten out of gaming until recently. It's a damn shame that even after all of that, TES VI is still basically in pre-production/early concepts.

And it's not like it's impossible to do a far future society with downscaled tech well: just look at "Dune" and the way its world has adapted to the fallout from the Butlerian Jihad, and how different social roles like the Mentat and the Pilots arise to fill the roles once taken by thinking machines. If something that is present in our current society isn't present in your future society you must account for how said thing was removed from society and how society adapted in its absence. Effects have causes, and likewise effects go on to be the causes of subsequent further effects. This is storytelling at it's most basic, and the fact that Bethesda doesn't seem to have grasped it makes their reputation for telling good stories all the more baffling.

As soon as I heard "thousand planets to explore" I knew to be very afraid. It's just absolutely obvious to me that there's never going to be a thousand planets with *meaningful content* in them. That in itself isn't scary - it would be fine if there's 999 empty filler planets and one good one, if that one really was good. But when the game director themself brings out "big numbers" as the headline feature of the game, it gives me a message on their priorities. It's the same as with "we have 17 000 endings" or "262 different monsters, 43 weapons, 11 new character classes" and blah blah. The numbers don't matter. Does it have a meaningful, fulfilling, engaging story? Does it have seriously fun gameplay? Does it have a genuinely interesting game world? Does it have beautiful, thought provoking art? Is it challenging or is it casual? You can try asking questions that are relevant to yours and trying to apply the publisher's headline claims to those. "What's the game like?" - "It has a thousand planets!" "Umm... Okay. Well, does the game have a message, or do you learn something about life when you play it?" - "It has 262 different monsters!" "I... Oh boy. Well, what sort of emotions do you think a player might feel while playing?" - "You can play as 11 different classes!" "That's not - oh never mind I'll just go play something else."

Another thing that drives me crazy with Bethesda laser weapons: Lasers should not have recoil! The real problem with lasers is that they heat up quickly. How much more interesting would lasers be if they had no recoil but you had to manage the heat with heat sinks or needing to give them time to cool. They could have been your "laser accurate" weapon that stays on target after firing but has its own costs. They made lasers boring.

The dumbest part of that is that mods to fix this are probably years off because you need to completely overhaul the game to fix its actual problem: nothing is connected. This is a game that needed emergent gameplay design, but Bethesda is only experienced with hand crafted worlds. Economies need to connect, space needs to be flown through, outpost need to connect to the greater economy, exploration needs to be expanded so you are discovering new things in deep space and the story needs to be deleted and replaced. It needs to basically be star sector lite for casual players.

Amazing. Everything you said was completely correct. The illusion of choice in this game is what frustrates me the most. Especially considering Obsidian gave Bethesda the perfect blueprint for crafting an RPG with Fallout: New Vegas. That game released in 2010 and had, what, an 18 month development cycle? And yet, every quest can be cleared in multiple ways, choices matter, and so do the skills and traits you choose. The way you build your character has an impact on your entire playthrough, and on the world around them. I just don't understand how that game can be so good, do so many things right, and yet Starfield has *regressed* in so many ways.

Yeah, it's one of the more baffling design decisions. A lot can be put down to carelessness/thoughtlessness/ineptitude on Beth's part. The only explanation I have for this is that it unconsciously reflects the current state of society IRL, where most people are on edge all the time, and it's like common courtesy has gone out of fashion. Gone are the days of Morrowind, where the society is highly xenophobic, but if you make a name for yourself, you're eventually treated with respect. Now, the whole world is populated by people who are simultaneously naive and overly trusting while being as disagreeable and unpleasant to deal with as the stereotypical moody teenager. Beth really seems to have become complacent - all the "streamlining" since Oblivion is bad enough, but they also behave like they exist in a bubble with no awareness of the player base or how real people function.

During your party at the camp, new tieflings will be there to replace the essential ones killed.

28:58 The devs at Obsidian thought of this ahead of players. In Fallout: New Vegas, they created a character in the form of an AI called Yes Man who inhabits a series of robot called a securitrons and can jump from one after another if killed indefinitely. Because of this, any actions taken by the player, the Yes Man/Independent questline will always be available. This means that if all other avenues of completion are impossible (for example, due to high Infamy with all major factions, killing key important characters), the game can still be completed even if a laser or plasma weapon respectively disintegrates or melts him. This does not cause any quests he is associated with to end or fail. In The Outer Worlds, a character be the name of Phineas Vernon Welles, a fugitive scientist who helps the player, cannot be killed because the game makes it so you can kill anyone else you want and still progress the storyline by reading stuff of looting their bodies. If someone absolutely needs to be alive for the story to continue, they are kept away from the player, like Phineas and a chairman character.

I’m so glad Starfield came out at roughly the same time as Baldur’s Gate 3. Side-by-side comparison really highlights Bethesda’s laziness, pirating/not updating old concepts from previous games, and resting on the past. I hope this is a wake-up call for them regarding ES6 and the next Fallout. I don’t hold out hope, though. Starfield is going to make a ton of money and they’re going to use that as the measure of success. Like Disney’s repackaging animated classics into unnecessary remakes for a cash grab, Bethesda’s going to keep doing this crap as long as people keep paying.

There is some Radient AI left over, like people will pick up food or try to steal it; which leads to *a specific pickpocket always dying* in the slumtown city south of the capital. There is also a unique set of people that buy Skooma from Shady Sam outside of the capital city and consume it in the south town's Skooma den. They run out of cash and can't buy it at 150 gold and end up murdering him off-screen all the time, most people don't know there is a Skooma ring as Shady Sam perishes 3 game days in due to the slummies needing their fix. They removed some of the weirdness. From what I garnered from a decade of dev journals, code diving, and a few interview, that the game often performed like a "Single Player MMO" where the townsfolk ended up doing whacky stuff and getting into antics due to their various allegiances and almost always cascaded into steamrolling the player as the AI would buy up all the gear, lag up the systems as the AI constantly updated a thousand NPC's constantly up to nothing but hi-jinks and always perishing in ways that result in players not being able to finish quests. They fixed these issues by having unimportant NPC's do wandering, the Anvil Hunter comes to mind where he'll often perish to trolls, whereas important NPC's follow basic routes and generate food so they do not shop and never need more gold. It gets out of control with a specific NPC in the capital that most of us remember pickpocketing infinite gold from him; because of leftover scripts carrying through and deciding that he needs more gold to go shopping and never accomplishes it due to the AI. Bit of a long blurb, but I hope it explains some of the reasons why the AI was changed in Oblivion. TL:DR? Oblivion is freakin' weird.

Having a character interact with the environment, walk around or even just lean on a railing adds so much over two people awkwardly standing static with a zoomed in camera. Edit: Though I actually liked the lockpicking, I found it more interactive than most systems as far as mini-game puzzle mechanics go and there was actual tangible difference between an easy and master lock.

Now I'm sad. You're right. You laid out your points clearly and crystalized the underlying problem I knew was there, but don't want to acknowledge. It was brave to make this post. It's the exact opposite problem Cyberpunk 2077's launch. They had a buggy launch but I could see the quality of the story. Starfield has less bugs (than Cyberpunk at launch) but doesn't have the story. I love RPGs, but almost every developer is setting their games in fantasy or history. I keep getting so disappointed by Sci-fi/Futuristic games. I'm gonna go cry for a while now.

It’s a Bethesda game is a poor excuse, though somewhat justified, implying we’ll accept bugs and a lack of polish at release.

It’s a Bethesda game doesn’t apply to Starfield because there is no immersion, the story sucks, and the side content all feels like busy work.

I thought the story was ok. The lore of this IP is fascinating and original. I know Sam was an excellent companion with a great story arc. Actually he was so great (his daughter too) that I can't really comment on the other companions. The faction quests are so much fun. Scaring people wearing my tardigrade costume is so much fun too. And I feel that the less developed parts of the game (barren planets and incomplete plot lines) are excellent foundation for expansion and DLC. And its going to be a modder's playground for decades too. This game is a great gift.

The problem is that Bethesda insists on continuing to use their in-house Creation Engine, but without having a dedicated team that only works on improving it. In fact, the only time they work on the Creation Engine is when they take the version used in the last game and monkey with it for the next game. The Creation Engine started as the Gambryo engine that was used in Oblivion and Fallout 3. So they monkeyed with it and made the Creation Engine. And then they toyed with it a bit for each new game, and Starfield is no different. In fact the Creation Engine in Starfield is so similar to the one used in Fallout 4 that the Fallout 4 console codes STILL WORK. The reality is that Todd refuses to bring in the number of workers necessary to make his games (or perhaps he has not been allowed to by the evil Zenimax). You can see this by the fact that the time between Skyrim and the Elder Scrolls 6 is expected to be 17 years. And between Fallout 4 and Fallout 5 will be over 20. He had to pull all the Elder Scrolls experts and Fallout experts off their games to work on Starfield. And even then Starfield still feels at release like it is only 80% of a game. As for me I have over 800 house in two run-throughs of Fallout 4; Starfield took me about 30 hours, and a lot was boring. I've put it aside and am waiting for a couple of updates from Bethesda and for the modders to fix the game.

Hell, maybe it still is (games still using it look fantastic and run incredibly well). But Bethesda (now Microsoft) just don't capitalise on that, and seem happy to let Sweeney Tim take over the world. Even worse, they completely killed off the modding tools for id tech, a crime considering id essentially invented the mod scene. Doesn't help that they estranged then ostracised John Carmack.

All the companions having the same "Liked That" and "Disliked That" points is the single most frustrating thing about this game to me. For RP purposes, my character was a Neon kid who turned his life around to become a UC citizen, but was not above doing some nefarious shit to accomplish his goals. Before I kept digging into the characters, I figured Andreja was going to be the one that was down for my bullshit, Sarah as the goody-two-shoes, Sam as the 50/50, and Barret not caring as long as you did it for science. The fact that I felt those vibes at all means the foundations were there and Bethesda just fucked it up As for the decades old game design, they went with dont fix it if it aint broke, except they broke it.

Something that really started to wear on me was the fact that after i joined the Crimson Fleet, i was getting into way less combat encounters even in the main story. Most of the enemies populating these POI's end up being Crimson Fleet so its just me and my companion awkwardly walking in and getting our quest item and leaving. Like, couldnt Bethesda have populated these spaces with spacers or Ecliptic or literally anything else? Just goes to show how little the game accounts for a player's actions/choices

"But what about combat? Where do I go to fight?" You go where they go. You raid _settled systems._ You hit New Atlantis and Cheyenne. You chill at the Den or the Key or the Red Mile. It's just that this game is so fucking myopic that _nothing inspires you to do that._ Congratulations. Don't play Todd's game. Play your own.

Speaking of weapons - I think Doom 2016 and Halo CE/2 showed that you don't even have to reinvent the wheel to make guns feel really fresh and interesting. Just slight revisions to the formula like micro-rockets, weird fire modes, addons - hell, the Needler in Halo was just a slow projectile gun, but adding the homing behaviour and delayed detonation made it feel totally new and hilariously fun to use. Ditto the sticky grenades. And the energy sword's lock-on-and-pounce behaviour. Those aren't massive leaps, just little changes for flavour, but they ended up being iconic and vital spice. Edit, forgot to even mention Destiny 2, which has written a whole playbook on how to make guns more interesting and fun without really changing the formula of FPS.

The part I was criticizing were the people complaining about others liking a game that they don’t like… after watching a handful of content creators air out their negative opinions and thinking everyone one else should agree with them, if they don’t, it must be some emotional compensation and not the fact that different people like different games.

Half-Life 1 and Dark Souls both still railroaded you into the main path while having every NPC be killable, and Elden Ring has areas in which you can't kill NPCs, but for reasons that are at least explained, like the Roundtable Hold's serenity, and anyone outside those safe areas are fair game, usually at the cost of finishing their side stories. It's been done by so many games, even ones that released before Oblivion. It's not impossible to have a game that accounts for player choice and still avoid breaking the main quest or needing alternate paths.

The most baffling thing about essential NPCs in Starfield to me is that Fallout 4 already took loads of cues in story structure from New Vegas, (the companions system and main quest forcing you to side with one of four factions) which is a game with almost no essential NPCs as part of its story structure. (because yes man's quests can't be failed) Then, Starfield's story feels _designed_ so no essential NPCs are required, literally all Starfield Guy needs to do for the plot is touch enough alien gobbledegook. Bethesda could've easily designed that main quest artifact hunting to be clearable without dialogue (or include a yes man esque immortal failsafe, like starborn voices start talking to you if you've murdered constellation) _and just allow_ all other quests to be failed But Bethesda STILL insist on flooding the game with essential NPCs when they don't have an excuse anymore
